A Demon's Path

C414

Ling Xiao did not immediately respond to Zou Tie Zhu's words and instead personally helped with Zou Tie Zhu's mother's pulse. After that, she used her mental energy to scan the parts of Zou mother's brain that were related to her eyes before nodding with certainty: "It can be treated. Tomorrow, go with me to the Zou family. I will personally refine medicine for your mother there."

Zou Tie-zhu looked at Ling Xiao gratefully, "Many thanks, Elder Xiao. However, you should still remember the words that I said to you that day."

Ling Xiao chuckled and said, "Of course I remember. This sheepskin scroll is for you."

Zou Tie Zhu took a sheepskin scroll from Ling Xiao's hands and was immediately attracted by it. "Violet Rank offensive treasure, Immortal Chariot."

Enormous design, sophisticated layout, complicated raw materials, and extremely high strength forging techniques – all of these were the characteristics of this superior forging blueprint.

Zou Tie-zhu's hands were trembling nonstop. His eyes were full of hunger and greed, as if he wanted to create all the things recorded on this sheepskin scroll in one go.

"It really is a Violet Grade Forging Map." Zou Tie-zhu took a long time before he came back to his senses. He kneeled down towards Ling Xiao and said, "Greetings, my lord."

Saying that he would cure his mother's eyes, and being able to come up with such a precious map for him, if such a considerate and generous boss didn't follow him, who else could Zou Tie Zhu follow?

"Alright, I can't leave the Full Moon Tower for too long. Tomorrow morning, I'll be waiting at the Zou family's entrance. I'll bring you in." Ling Xiao patted Zou Tie Zhu's shoulder, leaving more than ten thousand yellow crystals before leaving.

Zou Tie Zhu's mother might not be able to see it, but she had experienced a long life, and her heart was as clear as a mirror: "My son, this young master truly wants you to be his blacksmith. Such a diligent master, even if mother's eyes aren't healed tomorrow, you still have to wholeheartedly do things for her, understand?"

Zou Tie Zhu naturally understood that he had not started anything for Ling Xiao and had not proven his forging skills. With just a few words, he had received so many benefits.

If it weren't for the fact that this Lord Xiao was very sincere and had good eyes, who would do so many things without a clear return?

"Mother, don't worry. I will." Zou Tie-zhu nodded. He was anxiously waiting for tomorrow to come so that he could cure his mother's eyes and bring his mother away from Zou City with him.

Just as Ling Xiao left Zou Tianzhu's house and returned to the main street, a cold harrumph sounded in her mind: "You, on the other hand, ran off to Zou City to find a husband yourself after half a year's time without saying a word. You've caused that Ling family girl to lose her appetite. How despicable."

Ling Xiao chuckled coyly. "Yuxuan, it's not like you don't know my situation. Who knows if that girl Shiyu is being watched. I took the initiative to contact her, didn't I harm her?"

"Aren't you afraid of harming me?" There was a hint of anger in Long Yuxuan's voice as she said, "I heard that Xiao Lang was very rich and ranked first in the Xuan Fu Competition. That map has now risen in price, two hundred million."

Ling Xiao said with a face of mirth, "As long as you are willing to ask, I'll give you whatever it takes."

Ling Xiao did not say anything else. Even a woman like you was mine. Your money was not mine. It was just a matter of putting it in your left or right pocket. It was not a big deal.

Long Yuxuan once again snorted lightly, "Don't. I'm a merchant. I've said it before, there's only trade between us. Prices are clearly stated, and there's no deceit whatsoever …"

"Then you just raised my price." Ling Xiao's words immediately caused Long Yuxuan to be speechless for a long time. After a long while, she finally whispered, "Be careful."

Ling Xiao kept her flippant expression and replied sternly, "You have to be careful too. Wait for me to come back."

"Yes."

Without saying anything more, the connection between the two was broken.

By the time Ling Xiao returned to the Full Moon Restaurant, it was already time for dinner. All of the young masters were eating and drinking in various rooms of the Full Moon Restaurant. The Zou family had money, so no matter how they ate or drank, they would be able to afford it.

The moment Ling Xiao appeared in the main hall of Full Moon Tower, quite a few servants immediately walked over to her and handed her their master's name tags, hoping that she would be able to show her face and drink with him.

Ling Xiao casually looked at the name tags before choosing one of them. It read: Min Kang of the Clear Sky Sect.

A disciple of the Clear Sky Sect happily led Ling Xiao into the room where their Senior Min was. He respectfully opened the door and invited Ling Xiao in.

There were only two people in the room. Shang Ziheng and the elegant young master from the Heaven's Expanse School were most likely Min Kang of the Heaven's Expanse School.

Seeing Ling Xiao walk in, Min Kang immediately smiled. "Young Master Xiao, you are flattering me."

Shang Ziheng watched in astonishment as Ling Xiao sat down, his lips slightly moving.

Ling Xiao pretended not to know him and laughed at Min Kang with a smile. "Brother Min, I should be flattered... "But, forgive my ignorance, but with Brother Min's status in the Haotian Sect …"

Min Kang smiled. With just a glance, Ling Xiao could tell that Min Kang was deliberately trained by his family. Although his smile was fake, anyone who saw it wouldn't be able to tell that something was wrong.

In other words, Min Kang's smile was the standard professional smile of those well-educated and well-mannered young masters.

"I am the fourth generation grandchild of the Clear Sky Sect, ranked number one." Min Kang revealed his identity before carefully observing Ling Xiao's reaction.

"I see, it's Young Master Min Xuan. Please excuse me." Although Ling Xiao's tone was respectful, he only smiled faintly and was not too surprised.

"This person is so shrewd, I am far from being his opponent." Min Kang sighed inwardly. He had already made his identity clear, yet the other party didn't seem to care at all. Min Kang could not help but feel frustrated.

Therefore, the more powerful Ling Xiao was, the happier he would be. Min Kang raised his wine cup and laughed loudly, "Come, for the sake of Brother Xiao's honor today, let me toast three times to you for the sake of honoring me."

Ling Xiao did not stand on ceremony as she waited for Min Kang to finish drinking all three cups before drinking three. Following that, she muttered, "I don't like to drink like this. I like to drink from a wine jar."

Shang Ziheng immediately recalled the days when Ling Xiao was in the Bewitching Valley. The image of Ling Xiao gulping down large chunks of meat appeared in his mind. He felt his heart heat up as he hurriedly said, "Senior Min, I'll go get some wine."

"Alright." "Yes." Min Kang answered. Not long later, Shang Ziheng asked the waiter of Full Moon Restaurant to bring over thirty jars of liquor.

Just as Min Kang was looking at the wine jars in shock, Shang Ziheng had already picked up a wine jar and held it in front of Ling Xiao. "Come, Young Master Xiao. Let me toast you with this jar of wine."

Ling Xiao nodded at Shang Ziheng with a smile. "I greet you."

With a bang, the two wine jars bumped into each other. Following which, Ling Xiao and Shang Ziheng each held a jar of wine and raised their heads to drink.

Min Kang could only stare at the two of them as they drank. Since a young age, Min Kang's family education was to be gentle and gentle. Everything he said and did must be in accordance with the manners of a noble family's child.

Savage drinking methods like this were not allowed in the family.

However, seeing that Ling Xiao and Shang Ziheng had each poured four jars of strong liquor, Min Kang steeled his heart and picked up one of the jars and Ling Xiao Shang's fifth jar, "Do it."

Min Kang felt a burning sensation in his throat, making him want to vomit. He tried his best to suppress the discomfort with the alcohol. After a while, he realized that this drinking method was really cool and refreshing.

"Haha." Ling Xiao looked at Min Kang's red neck and laughed heartily.

Min Kang knew that he had made a fool of himself, so he continued to drink.

Other than the word "dry", there was no other sound coming from the room.

At night, Min Kang, who was standing alone on the roof of Full Moon Restaurant, looked at the moon. Behind him, Ling Xiao's voice sounded, "Young Master Min Xuan, what do you need?"

Min Kang didn't look back. He chuckled and said, "I just want to be friends with you. That's all."

Ling Xiao shook her head. "It's not a problem to make a friend. The problem is that I'm too afraid of trouble, and I'm too embarrassed to not help if there's trouble. That's why I rarely make friends."

Min Kang didn't continue speaking. He only sighed and said, "Young Master Xiao, do you know Shang Ziheng?"

Ling Xiao was secretly surprised in her heart, but she did not show it on his face. "How do you know?"

"He's my father's first disciple. I've known him for so many years, how could I not know what's wrong with him?" Min Kang seemed to be talking about something as he continued, "He is a very conceited person, even if it is me, he is only acting respectful on the surface. But I can see that he is really admiring you from the bottom of his heart since he is willing to help you get the wine."

Min Kang knew clearly that after his fellow apprentices had gone to the Valley of Fantasy, their respect for a certain person had reached a level of worship, especially for Shang Ziheng.

Min Kang was the son of their Master, and they had grown up together. It wasn't hard to find out who that person was from their mouths.

Ling Xiao said with a smile, "So what?"

Min Kang looked at Ling Xiao like a woman and grumbled, "Do you really need me to explain it so clearly, Thirteenth Martial Uncle?"

"Haha …" Although Ling Xiao was surprised at Min Kang's deduction, when it came to his ability to play the fool, Ling Xiao was naturally very strong. "Brother Min, you must have recognized the wrong person."

Seeing that Ling Xiao was adamant about not admitting it, Min Kang could only give up. "Thirteenth Martial Uncle, I know that Patriarch Xuan values you very much, and that my father doesn't even hold as much status as you in his eyes. I don't want to ask anything of you, but I hope that you can consider drinking with me tonight.

From Min Kang's words, Ling Xiao had heard too much helplessness. However, Ling Xiao was too preoccupied with herself and did not have the mood to bother about Min Kang's matters.

Of course, Ling Xiao did not hate Min Kang, so if he could help in the future, Ling Xiao would naturally not decline, "Alright, I promise you. Of course, Ling Xiao did not hate Min Kang, and if I can help in the future, Ling Xiao would naturally not refuse in the future.

Ling Xiao turned around and left. Just as she took a few steps, she suddenly turned her head and chuckled twice. "I'll say it again one last time. I'm Xiao Lang, not your Thirteenth Martial Uncle."

Looking at Ling Xiao's departing figure, Min Kang could only sigh helplessly at Yue Xing.

Then, a black shadow moved under the moon and silently disappeared near the roof where Min Kang and Ling Xiao were.

Ling Xiao looked in the direction of the black figure with a serious expression.

"Min Kang, Min Kang, you idiot." Ling Xiao could not help but secretly scold Min Kang, "If my identity is revealed, even you will not be able to bear the consequences."
